## ---- LICENSE TRANSFER ---- ##
InterfacewareUser="<MembersAccountUsername>"
InterfacewarePassword="<MembersAccountPassword>"
LicenseName="<EntitlementName>"
# STEP 1 - Get the Iguana ID
IguanaID=`/home/iguanauser/iguana --id`
echo "IguanaID: $IguanaID"
# STEP 2 - Call Members Account API get activated license code:
# Get Authentication Token
IguanaToken=`curl -k -X POST "https://my.interfaceware.com/api?username=$InterfacewareUser&password=$InterfacewarePassword&method=session.login" | jq -r '.data.Token'`
echo "IguanaToken: $IguanaToken"
# Get EntitlementID of license type
EntitlementID=`curl -k -X POST "https://my.interfaceware.com/api?method=license.listentitlements&product=IguanaX&token=$IguanaToken" | jq -r --arg name "$LicenseName" '.data[] | select(.name==$name) | .id'`
echo "EntitlementID: $EntitlementID"
# Get the ActivationID of the old Iguana using IguanaID and EntitlementID
OldIguanaActivationID=`curl -k -X POST "https://my.interfaceware.com/api?method=license.listActivations&product=IguanaX&token=<IguanaToken>&entitlementid=<EntitlementID>" | jq -r --arg instanceId "$OldIguanaID" '.data[] | select(.instance_id == $instanceId) | .activation_id'`
echo "OldIguanaActivationID: $OldIguanaActivationID"
# Transfer the old ActivationID to the new IguanaID
NewLicenseCode=`curl -k -X POST "https://my.interfaceware.com/api?method=license.UpdateActivationInfo&product=IguanaX&token=<IguanaToken>&description=<NewIguanaX>&activationid=<activationID>&instance_id=<newIguanaID>" | jq -r '.data.code'`
echo "NewLicenseCode: $NewLicenseCode"
